  • Okay, but I didn't say pain. Is body pain the only thing that makes you experience suffering?

  • If your system is secure, updating it can only make it insecure. If that is your one and only priority, you have to review updates before applying them, and since you have thoroughly investigated your entire stack up to this update and that version also has your real-world testing behind it, you're probably not going to apply most updates until some other priority comes along or you discover a previously unknown vulnerability.

  • It's like I'm there in the room.

  • Why I don't update software:

    • 1% apathy
    • 1% i want it to keep working
    • 98% i don't want to have to fucking reinstall the same fucking nvidia drivers again FOR SOME REASON
  • Being excluded from culture when you feel like the same person you always were. At some point in your life, every TV commercial, every new service, every trending product will be aimed right at you. And then you'll age out of the marketer's target bracket, and suddenly the party is over and you might as well be dead.

    It doesn't sound like a big deal because all that stuff is bullshit anyway, except our entire human culture has been replaced with a synthetic one, and everyone embedded in it takes the cue and treats you the same.

  • The experiences of animals are real and matter. Their suffering is identical in nature to your own.

  • dude they already own the locked down hardware you need to play the games. you already have to pay monthly fees or get locked out of most of your games. they can already lock you out of all your games whether or not you have physical media. if you're doing business with sony, YOU'RE ALREADY FUCKED. just lie back and enjoy it, or fucking leave.

  • You think that stupidity explains the actions of a director of a department at Google? Someone with multiple degrees and decades of senior experience? I mean, yeah, in the way that every one of us is stupid, but it sounds like you're making that universal kind of stupidity his personal moral failing. I think there are better explanations.

  • Don't bother, could just be the "always has been" astronaut meme.

  • Imagine the sensitivity of whatever device he used to detect the vestiges of a moral compass in 2017. That thing could detect a pocket watch on the moon from inside a blast furnace.

  • That's not how testosterone works. It's not fuel, it's just a signal. Everyone's neutral baseline is calibrated differently depending on developmental events mainly in the womb. It's not about how much absolute testosterone you have in a snapshot, it's about how much higher or lower you are than your own personal baseline. Your body will tend to maintain near your baseline, which might be much higher or lower than someone else's baseline, while "meaning" the same thing.

  • What, like, I'm permanently air-gapped with no wireless? NNCP

  • i want to send vrml datagrams at each other like i'm the fukken lawnmower man

  • I must downvote you because downvoting people who complain about downvotes is my truest calling. I do this knowing that I myself will be downvoted, but deep in your heart you know that this is how it must be.

  • Yes, I know. You are trying to draw meaningful real-world inferences from the nonsense stated in a silly made up story presented as a joke. You are trying to form conclusions from the text when all the meaning is in the subtext that you are apparently not picking up on. Or your humour is extremely dry, but I live with aspies, so I'm going with this.

  • You say, "Polanski has sex with a teenager," but I am quite comfortable with, "Polanski raped a child."

  • There's always a version of me who survived to suffer more somewhere in the multiverse.

  • That's not how jokes work.
